Whittier College Whittier

 Four Year Universities

The most significant of Whittier College traditions is one that marks both the initiation of new students into the College and the conclusion of their time at Whittier. The President's Convocation, held in Harris Amphitheatre on the first evening of Orientation, begins with students processing through a corridor of faculty in full academic regalia and culminates with the igniting of candles to symbolize sharing the Light of Learning. The poignant ceremony is repeated the night before Commencement at Baccalaureate, marking the successful completion of a course of study.
